A smarter way to stay hydrated.
HydrateME is a research-led innovation developed at Edge Hill University.
Using wearable sensors and AI, we’re creating a scalable solution to help people around the world stay hydrated, healthy, and safe.
Non-invasive hydration tracking
Personalised dehydration alerts
Simple contact form for professionals & collaborators
Who is HydrateME for?
HydrateME is designed for people who need hydration monitoring the most
Elderly Care
Supporting hydration in care homes with real-time alerts to reduce health risks.
We’re exploring how caregivers can track hydration easily and intervene earlier.
Field Workers
Outdoor and physical jobs face high dehydration risks, we’re working on that.
Our goal is for HydrateME to deliver real-time alerts that keep field teams safe.
Athletes & Coaches
Track fluid loss and avoid performance drops during training or competition.
We aim to provide insights that help optimise recovery, prevent cramps, and maintain peak physical condition.
Military Personnel
We’re working on solutions to support hydration in demanding environments.
Our aim is to enable safer missions with smarter hydration support.
Clinicians & GPs
Seamless data for better decision-making and patient care workflows.
We’re testing how hydration alerts can integrate into clinical workflows.
Care Home Managers
Improving resident safety and reducing hospital visits is our priority.
We’re building a scalable system that’s affordable and easy to implement.
Dehydration is often invisible, but its impact isn’t.
Dehydration contributes to thousands of preventable health incidents, yet it often goes undetected until it’s too late.
Why smarter hydration tracking is needed
From care homes to job sites, the risks of dehydration are widespread.
Even mild dehydration can impact focus, safety, and recovery.
Our research is focused on solving this global challenge.
Over 40,000 people in the UK are hospitalised due to dehydration every year
Up to 75% of adults worldwide are chronically dehydrated
Just 2% fluid loss can reduce performance and brain function
Older adults are 6x more likely to suffer serious complications
